I had a baby six months ago and around six weeks afterward I started getting pains in my left leg then the pain went to my right leg so the pain was in both legs mainly in the calf area then it went to the thighs as well then to the ankles... It scared me so I went to the dr and they did a blood test to check for blood clots and it was fine all normal then the pain went to my arms it went from the tops of my arms all the way down to my hands so now there is pain in my legs and arms I have talked to different dr's about it and they seem to ignore it which really makes me mad and now the pain seems to be spreading into my shoulders... I have tried to find things online like similar experiences but have found none and I am afraid to go to the dr's again for fear of just being ignored again does anybody have any ideas as to what this might be.. Or has it happened to anybody before?

It could be a lot of things including nerve damage left over from child birthing. Have you seen a neurologist yet? Also something to consider is that your body is realaigning itself because during child birth and gestation your pelvis softens and that is the base your spine is attatched to.

No, I have not seen a neurologist.. I would have to be referred to one and none of the doctors will listen to me... Which is very aggravating...
